Junior Explorers: Azerbaijan
Hey kids! Do you know where Azerbaijan is? Would you like to meet kids from Azerbaijan and learn about their culture? Well then, this is the club for YOU! We’ll be sharing what kids from NJ love to do while learning what Azerbaijani kids love to do. This club is open to 15 American youth and 15 Azerbaijani youth and will be completely in English. We’ll be making traditional dishes together (a list of ingredients needed will be provided after registration) and covering things like music and dancing, local legends and stories, and holidays. Register here if you are up for an adventure to explore another culture and make new friends from around the globe! This program is for youth ages 10–13. Sessions will run on Sundays from 10 a.m.–11 a.m. Starting March 13 through May 1 (no meeting on Easter Sunday).
